Why Choose Organic?

Quite Simply, Organic Food is Better for you!

Organic Food contains more nutrients; it contains higher levels of vitamin C and essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron and chromium as well as cancer-preventing antioxidants; and Organic Farming prohibits the use of artificial pesticides and herbicides.

Organic Food is better for your children

A study here in Australia showed how babies are regularly exposed to several pesticides at levels greater than the set safety levels from their own mother’s breast milk

Artificial colourings and preservatives in food and drink are thought to contribute to hyperactivity in young children

Farmers using pesticide sprays may be directly harming themselves, their families, their staff and their neighbours

Conventional farmers and farm workers have an increased risk of prostate cancer, more birth defects in their children, higher risk of their children having hyperactivity disorders, and higher risk of their children developing kidney, brain or other cancers

Organic Food is better for animal welfare

The health and wellbeing of organic animals is central to organic principles
